1Then all the tribes of Israel came to David in Hebron, saying: Behold we are thy bone and thy flesh.
1ΚΑΙ παραγίνονται πᾶσαι αἱ φυλαὶ Ἰσραὴλ πρὸς Δαυὶδ εἰς Χεβρὼν καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ· ἰδοὺ ὀστᾶ σου καὶ σάρκες σου ἡμεῖς·
2Moreover yesterday also and the day before, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that did lead out and bring in Israel: and the Lord said to thee: Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over Israel.
2καὶ ἐχθὲς καὶ τρίτην ὄντος Σαοὺλ βασιλέως ἐφ᾿ ἡμῖν, σὺ ἦσθα ὁ ἐξάγων καὶ εἰσάγων τὸν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς σέ· σὺ ποιμανεῖς τὸν λαόν μου τὸν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ σὺ ἔσῃ εἰς ἡγούμενον ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν μου Ἰσραήλ.
3The ancients also of Israel came to the king to Hebron, and king David made a league with them in Hebron before the Lord: and they anointed David to be king over Israel.
3καὶ ἔρχονται πάντες οἱ πρεσβύτεροι Ἰσραὴλ πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα εἰς Χεβρών, καὶ διέθετο αὐτοῖς ὁ βασιλεὺς Δαυὶδ διαθήκην ἐν Χεβρὼν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου, καὶ χρίουσι τὸν Δαυὶδ εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ πάντα Ἰσραήλ.
4David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.
4υἱὸς τριάκοντα ἐτῶν Δαυὶδ ἐν τῷ βασιλεῦσαι αὐτὸν καὶ τεσσαράκοντα ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν,
5In Hebron he reigned over Juda seven years and six months: and in Jerusalem he reigned three and thirty years over all Israel and Juda.
5ἑπτὰ ἔτη καὶ μῆνας ἓξ ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Χεβρὼν ἐπὶ τὸν Ἰούδαν καὶ τριάκοντα τρία ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐπὶ πάντα Ἰσραὴλ καὶ Ἰούδαν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ.
6And the king and all the men that were with him went to Jerusalem to the Jebusites the inhabitants of the land: and they said to David: Thou shalt not come in hither unless thou take away the blind and the lame that say: David shall not come in hither.
6Καὶ ἀπῆλθε Δαυὶδ καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ πρὸς τὸν Ἰεβουσαῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα τὴν γῆν. καὶ ἐρρέθη τῷ Δαυίδ· οὐκ εἰσελεύσῃ ὧδε, ὅτι ἀντέστησαν οἱ τυφλοὶ καὶ οἱ χωλοὶ λέγοντες ὅτι οὐκ εἰσελεύσεται Δαυὶδ ὧδε.
7But David took the castle of Sion, the same is the city of David.
7καὶ κατελάβετο Δαυὶδ τὴν περιοχὴν Σιὼν (αὕτη ἡ πόλις τοῦ Δαυίδ).
8For David had offered that day a reward to whosoever should strike the Jebusites and get up to the gutters of the tops of the houses, and take away the blind and the lame that hated the soul of David: therefore it is said in the proverb: The blind and the lame shall not come into the temple.
8καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ· πᾶς τύπτων Ἰεβουσαῖον ἁπτέσθω ἐν παραξιφίδι καὶ τοὺς χωλοὺς καὶ τοὺς τυφλοὺς καὶ τοὺς μισοῦντας τὴν ψυχὴν Δαυίδ· διὰ τοῦτο ἐροῦσι· τυφλοὶ καὶ χωλοὶ οὐκ εἰσελεύσονται εἰς οἶκον Κυρίου.
9And David dwelt in the castle, and called it, The city of David: and built round about from Mello and inwards.
9καὶ ἐκάθισε Δαυὶδ ἐν τῇ περιοχῇ, καὶ ἐκλήθη αὕτη ἡ πόλις Δαυίδ· καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν αὐτὴν πόλιν κύκλῳ ἀπὸ τῆς ἄκρας καὶ τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ.
10And he went on prospering and growing up, and the Lord God of hosts was with him.
10καὶ διεπορεύετο Δαυὶδ πορευόμενος καὶ μεγαλυνόμενος, καὶ Κύριος παντοκράτωρ μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
11And Hiram the king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and carpenters, and masons for walls: and they built a house for David.
11καὶ ἀπέστειλε Χειρὰμ βασιλεὺς Τύρου ἀγγέλους πρὸς Δαυὶδ καὶ ξύλα κέδρινα καὶ τέκτονας ξύλων καί τέκτονας λίθων καὶ ᾠκοδόμησαν οἶκον τῷ Δαυίδ.
12And David knew that the Lord bad confirmed him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom over his people Israel.
12καὶ ἔγνω Δαυὶδ ὅτι ἡτοίμασεν αὐτὸν Κύριος εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ὅτι ἐπῃ£ρθη ἡ βασιλεία αὐτοῦ διὰ τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ Ἰσραήλ.
13And David took more concubines and wives of Jerusalem, after he was come from Hebron: and there were born to David other sons also and daughters:
13καὶ ἔλαβε Δαυὶδ ἔτι γυναῖκας καὶ παλλακὰς ἐξ Ἱερουσαλὴμ μετὰ τὸ ἐλθεῖν αὐτὸν ἐκ Χεβρών, καὶ ἐγένοντο τῷ Δαυὶδ ἔτι υἱοὶ καὶ θυγατέρες.
14And these are the names of them, that were born to him in Jerusalem, Samua, and Sobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,
14καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν γεννηθέντων αὐτῷ ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ· Σαμμοὺς καὶ Σωβὰβ καὶ Νάθαν καὶ Σαλωμὼν
15And Jebahar, and Elisua, and Nepheg,
15καὶ Ἐβεὰρ καὶ Ἐλισοὺς καὶ Ναφὲκ καὶ Ἰεφιὲς
16And Japhia, and Elisama, and Elioda, and Eliphaleth.
16καὶ Ἐλισαμὰ καὶ Ἐλιδαὲ καὶ Ἐλιφαλάθ, Σαμαέ, Ἰεσσιβάθ, Νάθαν, Γαλαμαάν, Ἰεβαάρ, Θεησοῦς, Ἐλιφαλάτ, Ναγέδ, Ναφέκ, Ἰωνάθαν, Λεασαμύς, Βααλιμάθ, Ἐλιφαάθ.
17And the Philistines heard that they had anointed David to be king over Israel: and they all came to seek David: and when David heard of it, he went down to a strong hold.
17Καὶ ἤκουσαν οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι ὅτι κέχρισται Δαυὶδ βασιλεὺς ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἀνέβησαν πάντες οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι ζητεῖν τὸν Δαυίδ· καὶ ἤκουσε Δαυὶδ καὶ κατέβη εἰς τὴν περιοχήν.
18And the Philistines coming spread themselves in the valley of Raphaim.
18καὶ οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι παραγίνονται καὶ συνέπεσαν εἰς τὴν κοιλάδα τῶν Τιτάνων
19And David consulted the Lord, saying: Shall I go up to the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And the Lord said to David: Go up, for I will surely deliver the Philistines into thy hand.
19καὶ ἠρώτησε Δαυὶδ διὰ Κυρίου λέγων· εἰ ἀναβῶ πρὸς τοὺς ἀλλοφύλους καὶ παραδώσεις αὐτοὺς εἰς τὰς χεῖράς μου; καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Δαυίδ· ἀνάβαινε, ὅτι παραδιδοὺς παραδώσω τοὺς ἀλλοφύλους εἰς τὰς χεῖράς σου.
20And David came to Baal Pharisim: and defeated them there, and he said: The Lord hath divided my enemies before me, as waters are divided. Therefore the name of the place was called Baal Pharisim.
20καὶ ἦλθε Δαυὶδ ἐκ τῶν ἐπάνω διακοπῶν καὶ ἔκοψε τοὺς ἀλλοφύλους ἐκεῖ, καὶ εἶπε Δαυίδ· διέκοψε Κύριος τοὺς ἐχθροὺς ἀλλοφύλους ἐνώπιον ἐμοῦ, ὡς διακόπτεται ὕδατα· διὰ τοῦτο ἐκλήθη τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου, Ἐπάνω διακοπῶν.
21And they left there their idols: which David and his men took away.
21καὶ καταλιμπάνουσιν ἐκεῖ τοὺς θεοὺς αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐλάβοσαν αὐτοὺς Δαυὶδ καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες οἱ μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
22And the Philistines came up again and spread themselves in the valley of Raphaim.
22καὶ προσέθεντο ἔτι ἀλλόφυλοι τοῦ ἀναβῆναι καὶ συνέπεσαν ἐν τῇ κοιλάδι τῶν Τιτάνων.
23And David consulted the Lord: Shall I go up against the Philistines, and wilt thou deliver them into my hands? He answered: Go not up against them, but fetch a compass behind them, and thou shalt come upon them over against the pear trees.
23καὶ ἐπηρώτησε Δαυὶδ διὰ Κυρίου καὶ εἶπε Κύριος· οὐκ ἀναβήσῃ εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῶν, ἀποστρέφου ἀπ᾿ αὐτῶν καὶ παρέσῃ αὐτοῖς πλησίον τοῦ Κλαυθμῶνος·
24And when thou shalt hear the sound of one going in the tops of the pear trees, then shalt thou join battle: for then will the Lord go out before thy face to strike the army of the Philistines.
24καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῷ ἀκοῦσαί σε τὴν φωνὴν τοῦ συγκλεισμοῦ ἀπὸ τοῦ ἄλσους τοῦ Κλαυθμῶνος, τότε καταβήσῃ πρὸς αὐτούς, ὅτι τότε ἐξελεύσεται Κύριος ἔμπροσθέν σου κόπτειν ἐν τῷ πολέμῳ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων.
25And David did as the Lord had commanded him, and he smote the Philistines from Gabaa until thou come to Gezer.
25καὶ ἐποίησε Δαυὶδ καθὼς ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ Κύριος, καὶ ἐπάταξε τοὺς ἀλλοφύλους ἀπό Γαβαὼν ἕως τῆς γῆς Γαζηρά.
